 Well, I don't know this strange language but you can write something like
 this 

pigeon% cat b.rb
#!/usr/bin/ruby
require 'socket'
raise "usage #$0 host port" if ARGV.size != 2
handle = TCPSocket.new *ARGV
handle.sync = true
Thread.new do
   handle.each do |line|
      puts ">> #{line}"
   end
   exit
end
while s = $stdin.gets
   handle.puts s
end
